Abstract

Objective: Vitamin B12 (VB12) and folic acid (FA) deficiencies may be subtle andunrecognized and cause various neuropsychiatric problems. Serum levels of VB12, FA anddistribution patterns in a broad range of hospital adult population were investigated.Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of laboratory results of VB12, FA during a year was madein a university hospital. Only the first measurements of the patients during this time framewere taken into analysis. The patients under 18 years were excluded. The laboratory results of13875 patients VB12, FA levels were analysed. The mean levels of VB12, FA were analysed.VB12 and FA levels in different age groups and gender were also studied. Three differentlevels of VB12 were also analysed.Results: The overall mean level of VB12 (n=13875) and FA were 344.84 ± 184.44 pg/mL,and 8.76 ± 3.96 ng/mL respectively. Mean levels of VB12 were 350.77 ± 184.43 pg/mL, infemales and 332.20 ± 183.84 pg/mL, in males whereas mean FA levels were 9.12 ± 3.99ng/mL in females and 8.01± 3.78 ng/mL in males. VB12 and FA levels was significantly highin females (p

Özet

Amaç: Vitamin B12 (VB12) ve folik asit (FA) eksikliğine bağlı nöropsikiyatrik tablolarsinsice gelişebilir. Bu nedenle, hastaneye başvuran geniş bir erişkin hasta grubunda VB12 veFA'nın kan düzeylerinin incelenmesi planlandı.Yöntem: Üniversite hastanesi laboratuvarında bir yıl boyunca çalışılan VB12 ve FA düzeylerikesitsel olarak analiz edildi. Bu zaman kesitinde incelenen kan düzeylerinden sadece ilkçalışılan değerler değerledirmeye alındı. 18 yaşın altındaki hastaların sonuçları çalışmayaalınmadı. Toplam 13875 hastanın VB12 ve FA düzeylerinin ortalama değerleri, farklı yaşgruplarında ve cinsiyete göre dağılımı ayrıca üç farklı VB12 düzeyinde de incelendi.Sonuç: Ortalama VB12 (n=13875) ve FA değerleri sırasıyla 344.84 ± 184.44 pg/mL, ve 8.76± 3.96 ng/mL olarak bulundu. VB12 düzeyi kadınlarda ortalama 350.77 ± 184.43 pg/mL,erkeklerde 332.20 ± 183.84 pg/mL olarak saptanırken, FA ortalama düzeyi kadınlarda 9.12 ±3.99 ng/mL, erkeklerde 8.01± 3.78 ng/mL olarak saptandı. VB12 ve FA düzeyleri kadınlardaanlamlı olarak yüksek bulundu (p
